Genetic Dissection of Tie Pathway in Mouse Lymphatic Maturation and Valve Development
25 Apr 2014
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The genetic program underlying lymphatic development is still incompletely understood. This study aims to dissect the role of receptor tyrosine kinase with immunoglobulin-like and EGF (epidermal growth factor)-like domains 1 (Tie1) and Tie2 in lymphatic formation using genetically modified mouse models. APPROACH AND RESULTS: We generated conditional knockout mouse models targeting Tie1, Tie2, and...
